Secondary Testimonials

Claire Juhasz

Class of 2017

Started at PCS in kindergarten in 2005 and graduated year 12 in 2017. Teachers actually care about your education and value each students different learning styles. I left PCS with a lot of positive memories and life long friends.

Parent

Early Childhood Learning Staff made Preparatory School such a great beginning for my daughter who has battled cancer since the age of 14 months. Last year was her first year in remission where she got to learn how to walk and do things that children her age do. Going to Prep School is an amazing privilege for her that we are so thankful for. To witness her having fun with friends and sharing great stories of normal things is unbelievably wonderful. Thank you for making her feel welcome, safe and cared for.

Year 12 Captain

PCS is a special place to go to school because of its welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The students and teachers are always having fun and friendly interactions, which everyone wants to be a part of. I have noticed that students make and are friends with people from many other grades. This connection is really great to witness.
